Pucking Wrong Number by CR Jane



1 Star

Monroe has been on her own forever. A runaway from foster home and finally an adult just trying to make it in the world when one night she gets a random text. She tells the texter they have the wrong number, but they don’t believe her snarky response. What she doesn’t realize is that she texted Lincoln Daniels NHL golden boy who is intrigued by her snark. He is determined to have her no matter what. Will he win her over?

WHAT THE HELL did I just read? From the description of the book, it sounds like a standard hockey romance. Boy meets girl by text the wrong number and he goes after her. Boy is wealthy and plays pro hockey and girl is form foster/street kid trying to make her way in the world with nothing. Sounds good. MAJOR SPOILERS COMING.

That is until about ¾ of the way through and she finds out he is literally stalking her and isolating her, so she only has him. He’s got her phone and apartment bugged. Her landlord evicts her, so she has no where to live because her bosses fired her because he PAID them all off to do this to her. When she is rightfully angry and tries to throw him out of her life, he KIDNAPS her and CHAINS her to his bed. He won’t let her go because she is HIS.

I read dark romances all the time and don’t mind dub con if it is done correctly. This was not done correctly. She literally caves to his whims almost immediately and is all in because she just loves him sooooooo much. I can’t get behind a book that is classic abusive relationship. This one is a hard pass, and the author ends up on my no thank you list.
